Wilder Graben (Nesse)
The Wilde Graben, also called Flutgraben or Wilde Leina, is a left tributary of the Nesse in district of Gotha in Thuringia , the upper reaches of which runs through the town of Gotha. It is fed to no small extent by the Leina channel, which was already built in the Middle Ages and supplies it with water from the Thuringian Forest, which is branched off by bifurcation from the Hörsel upper reaches ''Leina'' as well as from the upper reaches of the Apfelstädt from the system Gera/Unstrut/Saale/Elbe. Its natural upper course is called Ratsrinne. At 104.6 km², the catchment area of the Wilden Graben is hardly smaller than that of the Nesse above its mouth (131.4 km²), to which must be added the proportionate catchment area of Leina (estimated by TLUG Jena at 20.8 km² [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nesse (Hörsel)
The Nesse is a Flusslängen nacGeopfaden(kmz, 150 kB) tributary of the Hörsel in the southern Thuringia. Strictly speaking, it represents a second, right main branch of the Hörsel, which brings about as much water to join the Hörsel as the Hörsel itself and drains an even larger catchment area. The Nesse is a typical lowland river with an average bed gradient of only about 1.5 ‰. According to the Thuringia Water Act it has the status of a first order watercourse and is therefore under the maintenance obligation of the Free State of Thuringia. Origin The Nesse was formed at the end of the last ice age, geologists assume that a dammed lake with meltwater forced the breakthrough to the west. Neighbouring rivers belong to the Elbe river basin, the watershed of both rivers runs over Alacher Höhe and Bienstädter Höhe.Möller, Wolfgang (2004): The Nesse.
